Course Information

Scientific & Technical Visualization I and II are courses focused on the principles, concepts, and use of complex graphic and visualization to ols as applied to the study of science and technology. Students use complex 2D graphics, 3D Animation, editing, and image analysis tools to the use of computer enhanced images to generate both conceptual and data-driven models, data-driven charts, and animations. Science, math, and visual design concepts are reinforced throughout each course
